Depending on how you break down the year anything before June is still early since it is in the first half of the year. Hoping I am wrong on this because this would mean june release instead of April (still hoping) or May (still good already have some vaction to take) for it. Knowing Blizzard and how they deal with games it could very well be a late June release, but that is about 3 months away from now and they already cut PvP since they wanted an earlier release. This might mean they were in the beginning stages of working or test PvP for Diablo.
I am looking for a late April to early May release at this point, but this would mean that Blizzard would need to get its act together and figure out what they want to do. Keeping them all of the social networks will help them at this point.
Maybe they will announce this Friday? They are having all the fan sites down this weekend...would make sense to announce then have them there to cover everything.
If I'm right how about someone give me a beta key? =)
last few years announce are nothing i guess looks like all the important info is commin mondays not only date announce lol..
just because they typically do something on mondays doesnt mean anything considering important info has been announced on other days before. and there is nothing typical about the production of D3 and all its many twists and turns.

So a few weeks ago, they said there would be a release announcement in a few weeks. A week or two ago, it was said that it was a 9 on a scale of 1-10 in terms of release announcement. Then "counting down the days till that announcement" or whatever. But now it seems nowhere in sight. What the fuck? seriously...
"You won't remember that it was late, only that its great"
That's not true. I remember very specifically that Diablo 2 was late, and it had to be pushed by a week at the last minute becuase of a shipping issue, and that was twelve years ago. And I do remember that game was great.

This game had better be good...
Oh my god.
Can't we just be patient? Do we need to hang on every hint that they give us like it's fundamental to our very existence? It's a damn video game. Frankly, I don't care when it comes out. All I know is that it will come out. When, who the hell knows? I don't know. I doubt Blizzard is really sure either.
These posts make me sad. I think there will be a May release date. I just feel it, like a pressure in my testicles.
... wat?

I hate the way you cling to ignorance and pass it off as innocence
Or, jay also has a NDA wich happens to drop on the same date as MoP announcement. What i am thinking is that Diablo III will be released at the same time as the MoP Beta. Seems like a move to slightly spare the servers some login.
If so, while the logic for sparing the servers some is valid, it would be a dickhead move to those of us who play all three of their franchises. Imagine trying to play Diablo and MoP at the same time. Of course though, after this comes out, I may never touch WoW again.
Can someone explain me again why an announce for this monday is so unlikely? In these days of fast media, is it so important to spread announcements? Do you really think that MoP and D3 simultaneous announcement (not release) will steal each others' luster? They might amplify each other, if anything. It will be super monday. We'll be happy for D3 announce, others will be happy for MoP, many will be happy for both.
Or am I seeing this the wrong way?
If anything, Friday will be the next opportunity. Blizzard is having that round table conference and have invited alot of press/bloggers/etc to attend. Not many details on why or anything tho ... it could happen .. but lets not hope.
If not, we're looking at March 26th - March 30th as we all know they arent going to overshadow MoP week with a blockbuster D3 announcement.
on the german site golem.de they said in a sitenote to a GTA 5 news, that blizzard fixed the release date internally, they just don't want to make it public yet.
I am looking for a late April to early May release at this point, but this would mean that Blizzard would need to get its act together and figure out what they want to do. Keeping them all of the social networks will help them at this point.
Yes I know new target is Q2 but one can hope for original target of April lol
Didn't they cut a bunch of stuff month or two ago also to help with release?
Or is it just minor bugs and tweaks? Which if that's the case they should be able to announce release date and still iron those things out
If I'm right how about someone give me a beta key? =)
as i said. there is NOTHING saying it HAS to be announced on a monday. it can be announced on any day.
just because they typically do something on mondays doesnt mean anything considering important info has been announced on other days before. and there is nothing typical about the production of D3 and all its many twists and turns.
